The people OF Elkton and ncighboring
towns We're greatly shocked and agitated
on Tuesday evening by the intelligence
that there had been horrible railroad
accident on the p, ". Il Il. railroad at
IIavre de-G Grace with great loss of life.
The reports were very conflicting at first
and the number of killed WAS reported as
high as fifty. 1t is probable that the
railroad officials thought the loss of life
was larger than was afterwards found
out to be the fact, The company's ply
scians at all places near the scene of the
accident were summoned. y through

The Poultry Yard.

| conducted by Clarence Norton, Moran, Kan.
| sas. an experienced breeder, actively engaged
In the business.]
Keep the young chicks growing, and
let the hen mothers have all they want
to eat so they will commence laying
soon.
Those who put twenty to thirty
chicks under one hen during our recent
cold weather, know now what the
Roup is. 1t never will pay to put over
thirteen chicks under one hen, unless
in summer.
When chicks are fed and cared for
50 as to just keep them at standstill,
the food given is actually thrown
away. This is the most wasteful and
extravagant method ever pursued and
there will be No returns from the in
| vestment.
While in lola last week we had the
friends who is deeply interested in
poultry. She spoke some very pleas
ant and complimentary words for the
poultry yard, and gave US an interest
ing account of her own experience.
She had broilers large enough to fry,
lots OF small chicks and more coming
out every day. We wish her unbound
ed success and hope she will invite the
editor of the REGISTER to dinner of
fried chicks of her own rearing. Ifshe
does not, 1 am afraid Charlie will die
a debtor to his own stomach.
Mrs. James Spangler, of Lone Elm,
Anderson county, wants to know If
she shall keep account of her eggs till
November. Yes. We want all who
are striving for the prize to not get dis
Outraged, and when making up their
reports to give names of breeds kept,

Matched, number of chicks reared and
anything interesting if they can.
Count the fowls each month and if
any are disposed Of state just when and
we can make up the average better.
Her egg record for two months is very
good indeed.
Mrs. Magner says her ducklings will
not eat. She has tried every known
dainty but they refused to eat and
dropped and died. Usually ducklin gs
will do well on anything that young
chicks will, but her experience puzzles
me. Can any one tell her what to do?
If they were mine, I should thorough |
